We campaign for climate solutions that will help us develop without damaging the planet. In India, because our energy infrastructure is not fully developed as yet, we have the opportunity to make the right choices today. By starting an energy revolution that seizes the opportunity for low carbon, less pollution and sustainable growth, we can ensure quality energy access to millions who are currently denied access. We can deliver on development and protect our natural world for the current and future generations, instead of depending on our forests and foreign countries for the supply of fuel, whether it is nuclear, coal or oil.
